Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 cups cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, for macerating strawberries)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

    Assemble the Base: Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the crust mixture into the bottom of each serving cup, pressing it down gently with the back of a spoon. Set aside.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until well combined.

        Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain.

          Fill the Cups: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in each cup, smoothing the top with a spatula.

            Macerate the Strawberries: If desired, toss the sliced strawberries with granulated sugar and lemon juice in a small bowl. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to release their juices.

              Top It Off: Spoon the macerated strawberries over the cheesecake layer in each cup, ensuring a generous amount on top.

                Chill: Refrigerate the prepared cheesecake cups for at least 3 hours or overnight to allow them to set properly.

                  Serve and Garnish: When ready to serve, garnish each cup with a fresh mint leaf for a pop of color and freshness. Enjoy!
